Grand Master Jon O’Kelly, right, watches his students who traveled from the Washington D.C. area perform at the Saranc Lake Baptist Church a year ago on Aug. 17. The day centered around the group of 20 receiving various levels of black belts through his school, Northeast Taekwondo. A branch of the school still exists in D.C., but O’Kelly retired from teaching the martial art and closed his Northeast Taekwondo school in Saranac Lake earlier this summer.
